On today's episode Donnie picks the 1982 comedy, The Toy. A movie about a spoiled rich white kid who picks a poor black man to be his friend. If this sounds slightly problematic, I assure you it does have some heart to it.Starring Richard Pryor, Jackie Gleason and directed by Richard Donner (Superman and The Goonies). The Toy has a whopping 3 % on Rotten Tomatoes but just how bad is it really? The Vern and Donnie help explain what's good, what's bad and what's down right strange about this movie.

“We were around Barstow on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold”. This iconic line spoken by Raoul Duke in Hunter S. Thompson’s groundbreaking novel sets the reader off for an adventure that they won’t ever forget. With its strong use of psychedelic imagery and journalistic approach. Hunter makes us a third party to the antics that both Mr. Duke and his Attorney, Dr Gonzo get involved with. In this episode, Donnie and The Vern dive into Hunter S. Thompson’s chaotic world through the lens of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Adapted to the big screen by Terry Giliam and starring Johnny Depp as Raoul Duke and Benicio Del Toro as Dr. Gonzo.From insane drug-fueled adventures to profound insights on society, Thompson’s work is more than just madness; it’s a mirror reflecting our own realities.

Originally we planned to release an episode on Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas but due to technical issues That episode has been postponed. However, The Vern found an episode from his other podcast with Donnie as a guest to use in it's place.RoboCop 2 was released in 1990 and has a lot of the returning cast members including Peter Weller and Nancy Allen. It's directed by Irvin Kershner who is best known for directing another famous sequel with The Empire Strikes Back.Does this sequel hold up to the original , Will Kershner match Paul Verhoeven's satirical tone and why is RoboCop's suit suddenly blue

There have been many adaptations of stories by Stephen King, but none have been rated as low as Graveyard Shift, with a 0 % score on Rotten Tomatoes.  This horror film ranks lower than Maximum Overdrive , film that King himself doesn't even remember making because he was so high on cocaine. Hosts, Donnie Roberts and The Vern brave the late nights at Rabbit Hole Podcast studios to review Stephen King's Graveyard Shift.  Pray they make it out alive.Check out all of our podcasts on our home website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.rabbitholepodcasts.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us by giving us a dollar! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/rabbitholepods⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Questions, comments, concerns?
